Arizona has some epic hiking trails that will take you to see unforgettable scenery while giving you one heck of a workout. However, if you’re just looking for a hike that feels more a stroll—such as one that’s fairly easy for kids or can be completed in an hour or less—we still have some lovely trails. Here’s a look at one trail in Flagstaff that combines beautiful views with an easy hike.
The trailhead for the Aspen Nature Loop is located near the Arizona Snowbowl at the San Francisco Peaks. You can find details about accessing the trail and nearby attractions by visiting the U.S. Forest Service website.
